# Tottenham: Paratici could tempt Martin Terrier to north London

**[Tottenham Hotspur](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/) and sporting director Fabio Paratici by extension could lure Rennes forward Martin Terrier to N17 with Champions League football.**

### The Lowdown: A real player

Operating on the left-wing, [£30 million](https://theathletic.com/3464667/2022/08/01/leeds-united-rodrigo-cagliari/) Terrier is a real threat in the final third, with his goalscoring ability coming on leaps and bounds over the last three seasons.

21 goals and three assists from [37 games](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/329356/History/Martin-Terrier) was an exceptional haul from the Ligue 1 star last season, and he has carried that stellar form into the new campaign, boasting a healthy return of [11 goal contributions](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/329356/History/Martin-Terrier) from 14 Ligue 1 games. This comes in the form of eight goals and three assists.

### The Latest: UCL persuasion

According to CBS soccer correspondent [Jonathan Johnson](https://twitter.com/Jon_LeGossip?s=20&t=PZP9U3WDMRrFDxqEHsfSQw), Tottenham can persuade Terrier to choose the [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) over potential transfer rivals due to the lure of Champions League football.

Speaking to [GIVEMESPORT](https://www.givemesport.com/88086646-tottenham-could-lure-30m-frenchman-with-champions-league-football), Johnson said:

[Tottenham latest news!](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/tottenham-latest-news-3/)

*“I* *think that there are other clubs who might perhaps be able to put a more interesting proposition to him in terms of immediate involvement in top-level European football.*

*“So, if Spurs were to come back with some interest, for example, I think the potential of going and playing in the Champions League with them might sway his opinion.”*

### The Verdict: A perfect fit?

Having bagged [21 goals](https://www.fotmob.com/players/770136/martin-terrier) in Ligue 1 last season, Terrier has still not been rewarded with a cap for the French National Team.

Despite his emphatic impact for Rennes, the forward seems vastly underrated and would suit Spurs down to a tee, with European football writer Tim Williams even calling him ‘very quick’ (Sky via[GiveMeSport).](https://www.givemesport.com/88043548-leeds-hold-definite-interest-in-phenomenal-30m-star-at-elland-road)

Whilst he could be a perfect fit, the competition from Dejan Kulusevski, Richarlison and Son Heung-min could put him off a move, with regular minutes by no means a guarantee.

This move may be dependent on Terrier’s role within the squad.
